As mentioned in the other mail, KVM-style? NetBSD does support HAXM (--accel hax) and in a downstream copy NVMM (-accel nvmm). http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/the_hardware_assisted_virtualization_challenge http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/from_zero_to_nvmm Once NVMM will stabilize we intend to submit it upstream.
